Hello all,
I just got back from an overnight stay and makeover session with Phoebe Cross just south of Atlanta. This was my second trip and first overnight. Phoebe is wonderful. She has been doing mtf makeovers for years , is a lot of fun to talk to and has a TON of wigs, clothes, shoes, accessories...
I am not from Atlanta, so I stopped on the way to get a manicure and my nails painted. I have never done that and wanted to so I looked good for my first time out. I walked in to a place, dressed as a man, and asked if they took walk inside. The lady said yes and asked what I wanted. I said a manicure and polish. She told me to pick out a color. And when I chose a hot pink, she started up. She held it up, waived it around and said something in Korean or whatever she was. Of course the place was packed and everybody stopped and turned around. I was determined not to run out embarrassed. I sat down and she did it. She made several other comments to the girls next to her who giggled. Whatever...I got my nails painted hot pink. Not a great experience at all when I am still very shy. The worst part was having to sit there during all that and I couldn't just walk away because of a look or a comment. If I had walked out, I may not have had the nerve to try again.
I headed down the road to Phoebe.
Phoebe did my makeover yesterday, then we picked me out an outfit. I thought I looked adorable. I was wearing a little gray sweater dress with light gray hose and some very cute black shoes(3"). I used a little past shoulder length straight wig with long bangs and we pinned it back with a cute barret.i had found a padded push up bra at Victoria's Secret that gives me enough upstairs so I didn't even use anything else there. I felt comfortable, sexy, and was ready to go out for the first time.
We went to a little Italian restaurant. The wait staff was very nice. I couldn't eat much because I was so nervous. We were there about an hour. We just talked. I tried to concentrate on Phoebe and not worry it care what anyone else was doing.
I felt sexy and free when I was making the walk across the parking lot to get the car. I did it!! I went out. Very proud of myself.
Phoebe is awesome. I am going back in a few weeks to go shopping. Anyone have any ideas for crossdresser friendly stores in the Atlanta area? Look out, Tiffany needs clothes! 👸👗👠💄
